In the second example, Client.AsMember(asTeamMember).ListRevisionAsync(path), the client object would be for a "team-linked API app. For this kind of API app, the app is connected to the Dropbox for Business team itself, not a single user. This would be a DropboxTeamClient object. That being the case, by default there is no specific user to operate on. That's why AsMember is necessary to specify which member of the team to operate on.
If your app is registered for the "Team information" permission, for instance, your app is a team-linked app.
